Maofeng(loose tea)

There are also tea gardens that produce Mao Feng tea in southern Zhejiang province and in Sichuan on Mt. Emei, one of the four sacred mountains of Buddhism.

Mao Feng tea is only harvested during Qingding, the spring harvest festival during the spring equinox. For a few days, the buds are plucked just at the beginning of the gentle spring rains when the buds begin to swell. Sometimes lower grades of Mao Feng are picked after the beginning of the heavier rains or Gu Yu, grain rains.

Grown in the Huangshan mountains of Anhui province for over 300 years, Mao Feng tea is one of China's 10 Famous Teas. You can still occasionally find for sale a hand-picked harvest from wild tea trees of the Huangshan mountains, but it is rare. It has been a tribute tea to emperors and recently, a high grade of Tea King Huang Shan Mao Feng was chosen as a National Gift Tea for presentation to foreign VIPs by the Chinese Foreign Affair Board.

While the floral notes of this Chinese green tea are reminiscent of wild peaches and magnolias, the complex character gives this tea a refreshing flavor, a smooth finish, and a long lasting clean aftertaste.
